We live in an era of mass mobility where governments remain
committed to closing borders, engaging with securitisation
discourses and restrictive immigration policies, which in turn
nurture xenophobia and racism. It is within this wider context of
social and political unrest that the contributors of this
collection reflect on their experiences of conducting
criminological research. This collection focuses on the challenges
of doing research on the intersections between criminal justice and
immigration control, choosing and changing methodologies while
juggling the disciplinary and interdisciplinary requirements of the
work's audience. From research design, to fieldwork to writing-up,
this book captures every part of the research process, drawing on a
range of topics such as migration control, immigrant detention and
border policing. It also reflects on more neglected areas such as
the interpersonal and institutional contexts of research and the
ontological and epistemological assumptions embedded within data
analysis methods. It makes a significant contribution to our
understanding of the major developments in current research in this
field, how and why they occur and with what consequences. This book
seeks to shake off the phantom of undisturbed research settings by
bringing to the fore the researchers' involvement in the research
process and its products. An interdisciplinary collection, it can
be used as a reference not just for those interested in the
criminology of mobility but also as a learning tool for anyone
conducting research on a highly charged topic in contemporary
policy and politics.
